Liars will reveal a lot about themselves to an accurate observer: don't let them trick you nor trap you!

Pinocchio might have been a clever wooden boy, the length of his nose always betrayed him.
Whoever pretends not to have lied in his life defines himself/ herself as a liar. Let’s be honest: each of us happened to lie in our lives, either in order to hide a secret or in order to protect oneself or a good friend. But I am not talking about little lies that might have occurred in our lives: I am talking about two specific categories of people whose lies can have consequences on our lives.
The compulsive liar is a person who can barely let a sentence out of his/ her mouth without spreading a lie. Those people are lost in their own imaginary world and need some medical help. Through his contradictory lies, he is quite easy to ambush.
There is another category of liar one should definitely heed if he wants to keep his world safe. This is the kind of person that approaches you with a mild mouth, sweet as honey, but with a hidden plan and intentions to damage your life or to use you for a precise purpose.
Always wearing a mask, this person might use tricks in order to seduce you or to impress you, like imaginary details about an over interesting imaginary life. The person who lies to you in order to impress you is indeed a person who feels very insecure about himself/ herself. In order to valuate himself/ herself in your eyes, he/ she will make his/ her boring life look as the palace of adventures. He/ she might also invent some other crusty details to raise your interest and to eventually make you fall into his trap.
The masked liar can be either a psycho who might endanger your life or one of those snakes, always ready to bite you when the mask will be dropped (because this will happen sooner or later, be sure of it).
In the world we live in, whether on the net or in real life, we need to use our sense of observation. People s words and behaviors sometimes reveal more about themselves than they actually think.
On a more personal level, I do consider somebody s lie as a breach of confidence. When a friendship is involved, it can be seen as a rupture of contract and signs the end of the so called friendship.
When I was a kid, my mom used to say in German to teach me about dishonest people:
Wer einmal lügt, dem glaubt man nicht und wenn er dennoch die Wahrheit spricht
Which literally means: who starts lying once, people will not believe him whenever he speaks out the truth…
This proverb is so full of truth. Once a person starts lying to you, you should really question that person s motivation towards you.
Several choices are left to you in your way of acting with the liar mentioned above, but there is no such pleasure to make a fool believe you are naïve enough to buy his/ her lies before you confront them with their own stupidity.

Detroit s Fat Killaz: phat emcees that made fat rhyme with sexy

If you haven t heard of Detroit s Fat Killaz, it is probably because you are not familiar enough with the Detroit underground scene. Let me introduce you to some of their tracks exposed on their my space account.
One of their most beautiful songs is the song entitled Tribute To Biggie. Based on dynamic instrumentals and sweet, soft female vocals gently reminding us of the hip hop legend, RIP Christopher Wallace, the song also points out Biggie s great lyrical skills and define tem as the great rapper of all times.
The organ notes in the background will suggest the perennity of great Notorious BIG s work. Through their influential and consistent work, their intense dedication to their art, their immense talents, some artists will never die. Their death just marks a turn in history, but those legends will remain generations source of inspiration. Nicely done, Fat Killaz, I enjoyed your song.
Born To Roll starts in a rough way. The Fat Killaz will to dominate the game is reinforced with their dark voices and the dark keyboard musical background. Lyrically, the song also enlightens the artist s talent. Natural Born Hustlas will invade your space with confidence.
Cuff Yo Bitch is a very rhythmic track in which the listener will enjoy the humorous note of the track. King Gordy s talent also beautifully comes to shine here.
I liked Big Girls Need Love less. Maybe too soft too my taste and too much R n B flavored.
Anyway, I highly recommend you to check out the Fat Killaz quattuor composed of Shim-E Bango, Marvwon, Fatt Father and the notorious King Gordy here.

Breaking vicious circles

This article will give you some insight-from a spiritual perspective-about real life situations some of us might have experienced or still experience.
Sometimes we find ourselves trapped into a situation in which there seems to be no escape. Whatever we do, no matter how hard we try, nothing seems to improve nor change our situation.
It looks like we reached a point that excludes any return to a better anterior situation and any chance to advance for the future.
We begin to mumble, hating our lives, blaming any person possible on our way, we actually do spend a lot of energy in trying to escape from our psychological inferno by any means without managing to get out of it.
We feel cursed, depressed, because each time we are trying to go forward, some new element seems to push us backwards.
We just entered the terrible world of vicious circles: once you enter it, there seems to be no way out.
In fact, a person who is aware of spiritual laws would probably know that even if the appearances are against us, nothing is really lost.
That’s also one good reason to tell the external world everything is all right even if our world seems to collapse- at least in appearance.
A person who entered a vicious circle is indeed trapped. But only in his/ her thoughts. The internal inferno makes this person feel locked up and the more he/ she will ruminate the same thoughts, his/ her circumstances are quite unlikely to change. Why? Because thoughts have a major influence on the circumstances of our lives.
Not only does positive thinking keep you in good health, it also prevents you from many disasters. I am not telling you to be naïve , blinded and to envision everything through pink glasses, that would be a rather sectarian and brainwashed view on life. There are situations, of course, that are independent of our will and that can cause us pain and grief.
The thing is, we need a spiritual approach on life issues. I mean: there is no problem that cannot be solved, even if you don t see the solution right now.
You feel trapped in a situation that seems to be outta control? All right.
Stop your lamentations. Stop thinking as if you were running into the same circle. Yes, refuse to do so.
This is the first step. Stop thinking in the same negative way. Refuse to do so, for your own sake!
Then keep quiet. Try to find out how and why you came to this tricky point. Don’t try to put the fault on other people: envision your mistakes and failures with realism and objectivity. The perfect conscience of how and why you did it wrong will help you to go forward.
Be humble and accept to learn from your mistakes. Then you will be able to see if you can change anything to your current situation.
Either you will find a solution (even a temporary solution) or you will realize you cannot change anything to your current situation.
If you cannot change the situation, don’t get mad or angry: rather accept what you cannot change.
Just visualize, day after day, what you really wish from your profound heart and believe it. Have faith.
If you are patient, you will soon see an unexpected change to your situation, because the way you envision things is also the salvation that helps you out of the trap that kept you from advancing.
Next time you feel mentally trapped through an unpleasant situation, bare in mind that there is always a way out, as long as you keep having faith.

MC Ren, the voice of the streets of Compton

Please take note that this is just a short biography and don t get mad at me if some details have been omitted. Thank you.
MC Ren aka Lorenzo Jerald Patterson was born in Compton on June the 14th, 1969.
MC Ren became part of the notorious NWA group after leaving high school. He was integrated into the group after NWA had released its first CD, NWA And The Posse.
Carrying the infamous nickname of The Villain, MC Ren is known for his qualities as a lyricist. Along with Ice Cube, the talented rapper wrote most of NWA s lyrics. The overwhelming success of Straight Outta Compton propelled NWA to the top. Controversy and acclaim followed.
After a dispute with Ice Cube that lead to the emcee’s departure from the group, Mc Ren became the main lyricist for NWA.
In 1992, MC Ren released his first solo album, Kizz My Black Azz. The same year, the skilled emcee converted to Islam.
The album went platinum and was followed by a second album, Shock Of The Hour in 1993.
MC Ren faced a terrible drama when his friend and collaborator DJ Train died in a house fire, before the release of his third album, The Villain In Black.
In 1998, Mc Ren released another album, Ruthless For Life.
He then left Ruthless Records.
Mc Ren is featured on Dr Dre 2001 album. He also appears on Public Enemy’s recent Rebirth Of A Nation album and on numerous other artists album as well.
Mc Ren has a solid reputation for leaving a murderous lyrical carnage when he spits his rhymes:
“I’m putting my energy into bustin’ rhymes. I’m a lyricist and that’s what I want to be recognized for. I’m not about flossin’ and tryin’ to be harder than I am. I respect rap and I respect artists who sell records based on how tight their skills are, not on how much hype they make up or how many girls, cars and homes they get for props in their videos. Bustin’ rhymes is why fools got into rap in the first place and that’s why I’m here.
(Mc Ren)
He is respected by many emcees in the game. Nas refers to him in his recent Hip Hop Is Dead album  So who is on your top 10, is it MC Shan or Mc Ren? 
Contributing to dropping the N-bomb onto the world with his NWA partners in crime, MC Ren is one of those living legends who put Compton on the map.
MC Ren and his NWA fellows contributed to help black folks change their vision of things and to gain confidence.

James Brown/ Funky Goodtime CD review

Rating of the product:5 stars
This CD is a live concert recording of James Brown’s concert in Atlanta back in 1984. Hopefully I will manage to touch my readers heart through this review, and make them feel what James Brown s music represents to me. Be ready for an emotional and intense read!
James Brown wasn’t your average artist. He was a musician who played 3 instruments( guitar, piano and drums). Amazing and skilled artist with a warm and emotional voice, he was a man who had heart. Musical genius, he truly is the Godfather of soul music. James Brown was full of life, that s why one could speak of him as Mr Dynamite. Not only did he have all those qualities, but he managed to transmit his energy and optimism to thousands of people.
James Brown’s music has always been a wonderful ray of sunshine in my life and for that, I could never thank him enough. I love you, Mr Brown. May God bless your soul.

Sit back and relax. Time to listen to the legendary It s A Man s, Man s, Man s World. Trumpets welcome you for the James Brown s appreciation of women. Soft funky keyboard sounds soften the song that describes a rough man s world made of technical inventions. With his warm, profound voice, James Brown manages to create the antagonism between a man and a woman s world. Sometimes harsh sounding and introducing you into a man s routine, made of money and cars, his voice suddenly softens, becomes intense and full of internal emotions that transcript a man s feelings for women. This song is probably one of the most beautiful ode to us women that has been written, ever.
I love the I feel so good I wanna screeeaaam, because it comes from Mr Brown s profound heart. This passion is so communicative that it will make you scream. For real.
Super Bad will enhance your day and give you your dose of dynamism needed. No need to take vitamins when you have a James Brown song in your ears. Get on the good foot and dance along. Forget about your daily routine, let trumpets, keyboards and saxophone transport you into an explosive world!
Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready for a funky good time? Here we go. Electric guitars, rhythmic keyboard sounds, swinging drum beats, plus James Brown s warm vocals will actually take you higher and higher on emotions. Move your feet to the sound and carry that good funky spirit with you. Happiness guaranteed! Let saxophones weep in the background in perfect harmony with the singing guitars and the female vocals…you will feel good, because the music will make you feel allright.
Wonderful Try Me song: so emotional with its intense female vocals combined with James Brown s profound voice. As the instrumentals suggest it, this song is a chill out song for two (passionate) lovers.
Get On The Good Foot: that’s really the way we should look at life. Step up in the morning, get on the good foot and start a positive and dynamic journey. All instruments work together in harmony with the artist, create and re-create that wonderful sensation of being reborn.
Papa s Got A Brand New Bag is so full of energy that you would barely sit on your chair while listening to the song. Electric guitars, drums and vocals will enhance James Brown s explosive atmosphere.
I Feel Good is and will remain an eternal jewel. Positive lyrics, an astute and dynamic use of trumpets, keyboards and drums will transport you into an universe of positive emotions pouring from the heart and red roses of intense feelings thrown on you.
This CD is definitely worth your listen.
Thank you Mr Brown. Gone but never forgotten.

Sound The Alarm: let Detroit artists Black Milk and Guilty Simpson drop a bomb on you listener/ video review

Rating of the product: 4.5 stars
This is brand new and explosive. Before Black Milk steps on the scene, scratches sounds and a dark Detroit City background full of painted graffiti walls will take over.
Pump up the volume, turn it loud on.
Detroit is in the building. Open your ears wide up and listen to Black Milk, who comes up to you with a confident attitude, describing Detroit in its nudity, sending his bullets while his fellow Guilty Simpson comes into play.
Hip hop lovers will enjoy Black Milk s verbal fluency and his real nice flow delivery.
Every place in Detroit seems to be reminiscent of Proof, as a Dirty Harry club seems to prove it while Black Milk mentions the Yzark song.
Some Black Milk and Guilty Simpson drawing appear on the wall, as the atmosphere begins to get overheated. Sound the alarm, call for help, this shit is real!
You gotta love the rhythmic Guilty Simpson part too. An army of Detroit lyrical thugs owns the building, including Hex, who is pictured on a tree.
I liked the original video of two Detroit artists who show a total dedication to hip hop.
Watch the video here.

7 Mile P 2 Rock mixtape Volume 1 review/ a Butter Butter-G-Life Collaboration

Rating of the product: 4 stars
Detroit underground artists Butter Butter (not to confuse with notorious Detroit DJ Butter) and his partner in crime, the infamous G-Life will offer the listeners some interesting perspectives about the Detroit scene.
The mixtape features some real good Detroit talents such as Moe Dirdee of Woof Pac and Trick Trick.
The listeners will probably enjoy J O Neal s Clap Yo Hands. His particular, raw voice, combined with the bell sounds background, a good sense of rhythm, make the song highly enjoyable. Moreover, it proudly represents the 7 Mile spirit. I recommend you the song.
Face and Denny Flood totally shine on a good gangsta track that is sarcastically written. Dark bass lines contrast with soft, knife alike violin sounds and good vocal performances of both artists, introducing the listener into an outlaw background that is interrupted by some gun shots.
Good job. I liked it.
Moe Dirdee s freestyle will surround you with a dark musical background. Meet an army of ruthless soldiers during which Moe Dirdee excels at doing his lyrical thing.
D Wells introduces you into a quite festive ambiance with flute sounds and soft keyboard sounds. However it is just a wrong impression. U Don t Want Beef reveals a great dose of offensiveness. D Wells will bang you with his lyrical weapons!
Come smoke and drink with them. Smoke With Us is a well lead club song.
One could barely ignore Hydro s well handled freestyle. Astute wordplays and a good flow delivery will allow you to fully appreciate his track.
Trick Trick is featured on track 13 with one of his latest songs, Let It Fly. One should definitely give it a listen. With his particular know how, his rough voice and his OG spirit, Christian Mathis aka Trick Trick enhances the mixtape s gangsta flavor.
Globally, Butter Butter and G-Life have done a great effort on the mixtape. Inventive lyrics, rich sounds, a definite gangsta flavor, a combination of skilled artists and freestyling masters , all those elements make 7 Mile P 2 Rock highly enjoyable.
Interested in coping this mixtape? Go for it!

E-Dro/ From My Hood To Your Hood/ mixtape review

Rating of the product: 4 stars
Mixed by Nas’ DJ, DJ Les, the From My Hood To Your Hood mixtape reveals an interesting NYC talent, E-Dro.
Guess Who s Back : as E-Dro walks in on a keyboard and piano background, he draws his painful path in the hood. Proudly representing NYC, rich of a knock out attitude, E-Dro is ready to impress his listeners.
In Black Man, E-Dro pours his heart out about the difficult living conditions of a black man in the hood. Speaking on behalf of his folks, E-Dro tells things the way they are: black people don’t always have it easy. Constant stuggles, racial discrimination, poverty come out of the profound cry of a black man s soul.
What Happened is written in form of a big question mark. Distorted keyboard sounds will describe E-Dro s lack of comfort with the constant oppositions and fights between black and white communities. Is it possible to change things in a land in which color matters? Can we work together towards more justice and equality for everyone? Can we change the fact of black kids dying in the streets because of aids and drugs? What happened? Why did things worsen?
Smoking is built on very rhythmic jazzy piano sounds and rhythmic drum beats. Feel the beat, the music and the passion that comes from an artist s mind. It is chill out time. Time for a blunt or two. Time for sharing in the community. Black music lovers should definitely enjoy this one.
On The Grind describes the usual situation of people living in the hood. You gotta struggle hard to make it and keep grinding, no matter what.
A swinging rhythm, repetitive instrumentals will make the listener feel the spirit of a man who keeps pushing on, regardless of the many material obstacles he might encounter on his road.
Street Life is enhanced with E-Dro s raspy voice, soft piano and violin sounds. Feel the contrast between soft and raw elements.
I’m not so enthusiastic about LAPD. I don’t agree with E-Dro on that one. I might be a woman, but I am not keen on listening to such kind of songs. This precise song won’t make me buy the album. I am keen on listening to well built reps. LAPD is gross as far as I am concerned. Neither did I like Be Ez, that sounded too much like a Destiny’s Child flavored song.
Fortunately, Grew Up exposes more serious subjects such as growing up in the hood. The instrumental suggest the harsh struggle all over the years.
Another interesting song is DC Ryders. The keyboard sounds and rhythmic drum beats will astutely describe a life on the run.
E-Dro s raspy voice will describe the roughness of life on the block.
Globally E-Dro s mixtape is a good piece of work. I recommend it to all of you.

Exclusive Chuck Dirty interview

Chuck Dirty is an incredibly gifted writer. He is able to paint pictures of his life experiences, with his lyrics. He is very creative and has powerful lyrical skills, his flow is remarkable and clearly undeniable to anyone who listens. As a fan, you look up to an artist you admire, but all along you wonder what kind of person they are, beyond the music. Well let me say…This interview was above and beyond anything, I ever expected. Not just because I’m a fan of his work or because he is a very talented Michigan emcee, but because he is the most honest, real and down to earth person…you will ever meet. I can only hope you enjoy his interview as much as I did! ~Donna Kshir
1.) Tell me a bit about yourself and your background?
I’m a 23 year old white boy from the Mitten, I was raised by my father who was a blue collar GM employee, he drove a hi-lo truck for 27 years and went out on medical retirement, after he had to have both of his hips replaced and a buncha blown discs in his back. I come from a long line of hustlers, my great great uncle was actually one of the founding members of Detroits Purple Gang. Most of my family were bootleggers during the prohibition era. A kinda cool thing, I have from the older generations of my family is an old ass picture of my great grandfather with Al Capone.. The real scarface so I come from a long line of hustlers and grinders. It’s in my blood.
2.) What or who motivated you to become a rapper?
My single biggest influence was 2pac. I know it sounds cliche nowadays, but when I heard “holla if u hear me” I just knew thats what I was gonna do. I had been into hip hop well before that, the first cd I ever bought was “The Chronic”. But there was somethin’ about 2pac that drew me in and made me think I could play a part in hip hop too. And really in my opinion he taught me how to rap too, because if you listen to my cd every thing you hear on there. I’ve lived through or I’m currently going through now. I keep my shit 100% real and thats why you don’t hear me rappin’ about guns and killings and shit, cuz it ain’t me… I don’t do that. I just bring it to ya real, and whats real to me and thats what 2pac taught me.
3.) Making it in the music business is a lot of hard work. What’s the biggest challenge you had to face?
So far, I’d have to say learning the business end of it. Cuz any one can stack up some chips and get a lil studio and record some shit, but what do u do after that?? See that’s what I had to learn and I’m still learning it everyday. My first album I ended up at the end of the day pushin 2,500 units out of my back pocket. But I wasnt workin with nobody, I wasnt interested in anything else, but ME! But 2,500 units ain’t nothin’, so I had to take it back to the drawing board and try to figure out what to do to improve my visibility. And after a lil’ while I started net working with people and doing a lot of shows, and really just grindin’ it out, and its starting to pay off… of my newest album “Horns & Halos”, I’ve pushed a little over 12,000 units, 100% independently. My names growing I’m doin’ bigger shows like, opening for the Ying Yang Twinz, Mike Jones, and Bubba Sparxx. The most amazing thing to me is the fans I talk to though, the ones that ain’t around me all the time and dont live in my city, and get a chance to kick it with me, them cats make me proud and make it worth doing. I got fans in London, Beirut, Lebanon and these cats have personally told me my cd helps them get through the day sometimes, and thru personal situations… I mean thats a blessing to me right there. If I dont get nothin’ else out of this game that type of stuff there satisfies me.
4.) Which artist, were you most pleased to work with and why?
My road dogg Bunz man, I just love workin’ with that cat, we create some ridiculous bangers every time we get together in the studio. Word to the wise be on the look out for NICKY BUNZ, the kids an animal and a breathe of fresh air for the underground. But yeah, Nicky is definately the one person thats always gonna be on a Chuck Dirty CD, no matter what, it aint comin’ out if it aint got me n Bunz on a few trax
5.) What motivated you to collaborate with each other?
Me and Bunz grew up together midaswell say were brothers, I’ve known him litterally my entire life, the day I was born him and his moms was at the hospital. So were gonna be brothers from the womb to the tomb…litterally (haha). But we grew up rappin’ together, 11 years old freestyling into a hand held recorder like the one from home alone over top of industry beats off of singles.
6.) Which artist haven’t you collaborated with yet, that you envision to work with in a close future and why? Astray, I feel like me an him are cut from the same cloth so it should be interesting to hear what we can come up with, cuz the boys an animal. I’m also anxious to work with Lethal Brand them cats are straight animals on the mic. I’m also going to be working with Jake the Flake for the next album, and Project Born.
7.) As a rapper, is there one rapper you pattern yourself after or do you have your own style?
I ain’t gonna sit here an act like my music hasnt been influenced, but I dont pattern myself after no one and I think my style is one of my own too, but of course I’ve taken things from others as I came up too. But took things like work ethics and business smarts and hunger, from rappers not a style. I try to keep a 2pac like work ethic and for the most part I do when were workin’ on albums we do no less than 2 or 3 trax a day, so as long as I’m on pace im good. I pay a lot of attention to the things Jay Z does business wise, and the things 50 cent has down business wise, them are 2 of the biggest hustlers in the world and I watch their moves n see if I can relate them to my hustle.
8.) What is your thoughts on the underground Hip Hop scene?
I love the underground scene, especially the Michigan underground scene, the music is great we got great artists out here, and for the most part I love us cuz were non-conformists… meaning we ain’t changing for industry standards love us or leave us either way were gettin’ bread. Look at Eminem perfect example of what I’m sayin’, he came in and changed the game, he didnt change for the game.
9.) What is your thoughts on today’s mainstream Hip Hop artists and where do you see them taking Hip Hop, in the near future? Hip Hop is dead period, I’m ridin’ with Nas on this… I respect all artists, but snap music an stuff like that is killin’ us. The other day I witnessed a 52 year old white woman walk it out… its sad that’s too commercial. But at the same time everybody wants to hate on the mainstream cats and I can’t do that. People hate Eminem and 50 cent and Jay Z, call em sellouts and what not… but I ask you isnt that the point?? To get your records on the radio all day long and sell 10 million albums?? I thought that was the plan?? I know thats my plan. Nobody in the hip hop game wants to be broke and get no recognition they wanna be on top… shit and so do I.
10.) If you could thank one person, for helping get you where you are today…Who would it be and why?
My Father, that man raised me right an broke his back doin it. I’m tellin ya, but he’s always been my biggest supporter, and always had my back no matter what, even if i was dead wrong and I respect him for that and everything hes done for me.
11.) Are you always so quick to generate idea’s or do you ever struggle?
I have my struggles its hard to be creative all the time when your seeing so much un-inspiring shit around you. I mean Michigan is in ruins man, Flint is the #1 city for murders in the country now, with Detroit and Saginaw both behind, it in the top ten. Thats some terrible shit, I come from the unsafest city in the entire country…. its just hard to drive around and be inspired these days. When I first started rappin’ we’d always meet up at the local parks n bring out the boom boxes and notepads an go to work. The damn parks ain’t even safe to be in no more. So sometimes I struggle with creativity, but thats also what makes my music soo good cuz its comin from a struggle.
12.) I found you have creative and powerful lyrical skills, your flow is remarkable and clearly undeniable to anyone who listens. Would you agree with that statement and why?
Yeah I’d have to agree with it, because I put alotta time into thinking about what I’m gonna tell the listener and what message I’m gonna bring to you. And I put alotta years into my flow and delivery and I think its about perfect for me. Not that I’m perfect, but just meaning its where I’d like it to be at.
13.) Musically speaking, who was your biggest influence?
2pac and Phil Collins, because of their intense emotion and delivery.
14.) Currently, do you have any projects in the works for 2007?
I got a new album, I just started working on tentatively called ” Roses & Razor Blades.” It’s a follow up to “Horns & Halos”. I’m a pick up where I left off an take you through my life since, I did that album.
15.) Where do you see yourself in five years?
I don’t really care to be honest as long as I’m happy with a family and a house. To keep it real wit ya, thats all I want.
16.) If I had to describe myself, I would say… I’m a leader not a follower. How would you best describe yourself?
Horns and Halos meaning I’m the nicest guy you will ever meet and I’ll help anyone out to the fullest, but rub me the wrong way and I’m a beast… I’ll be your worst enemy.
17.) How much time daily, do you spend in the studio and what does an average day consist of ?
All day really, I’m always in the studio cuz I built a studio at the crib so I’m always in there doin’ somethin.’ I work with a lot of other local artists so, if im not workin on my records, I’m workin’ on someone elses.
18.) In the beginning, as a journalist it was hard to have my talents reconized. Have you ever experienced that and how?
I’m still going thru that now, but I just grind it out on a daily basis, eventually they’ll recognize whats in front of them.
19.) If you could invite anyone to dinner tonight–dead or alive–who would it be and why? Proof, 2pac, Big, and me because they all went out around the age I’m at now, but had done so much more by then so I’d really just like to see what that convo would be like and see what I could learn from it.
